00:00Hey, I need to stretch a bit.

00:04We'll be with Wancho until 6.30 so no one will leave.

00:10Susan Wancho, if you have a talent, what do you wish for?

00:15Talent? I want to be good at singing.

00:18Now, fly.

00:19What?

00:20To avoid traffic.

00:21Oh, is that so?

00:22You know guys, the next person we'll meet has a different talent.

00:26But this is not his usual talent.

00:27He only uses his teeth and mouth.

00:30Like that?

00:31Teeth and mouth?

00:32I hope that's something he uses.

00:35Let's find out in the story of Mark Salazar.

00:38If you challenge Ray, the security guard, for his talent and strength,

00:54you won't be able to use your teeth and mouth.

01:02He can lift an electric pole,

01:05pull a bus,

01:07and kick cement.

01:16In San Mateo, Rizal lives.

01:18He's 41 years old.

01:20And he's known as the Pinoy Ironman, Ray.

01:23He was only a teenager when he started using his teeth and mouth for his talent.

01:28My brother told me,

01:29if you want to box,

01:31this is what you have to do.

01:33You have to jog,

01:34you have to do push-ups,

01:35you have to strengthen your teeth,

01:36because that's the first target of your opponent,

01:38that's the first target you'll hit.

01:40To strengthen his teeth,

01:42Ray carries gallons of water while he's chewing on it.

01:46Until I finished building the container,

01:48then I added another one.

01:50Until it became four,

01:52I carried two.

01:53I also chewed on two.

01:55He was able to lift a piece of concrete post,

01:59and even a sidecar.

02:01He didn't let it pass.

02:03From lifting,

02:04Ray even leveled up his ability to pull cars.

02:11It's a dream come true for Ray

02:13to be able to pull a bus that weighs 15,000 kilos.

02:18Ray doesn't want to give up,

02:21because he discovered his unique taste.

02:26I went to the construction site of Haloblak,

02:30wood, cement, fire.

02:33My brother-in-law challenged me

02:36to try what he was doing if I could do it.

02:40Of all the construction sites he's been to,

02:42cement is the most extreme.

02:46When I tried it,

02:47it took a few days for my mouth to heal.

02:49I swallowed the cement.

02:51Ray's family is supportive of him doing dangerous stunts.

02:55They say he's nervous every time he shows his teeth.

02:58We're worried because he might not be able to do it.

03:02He might get disgraced.

03:04We're telling him to stop pulling cars.

03:08He said he can do it, so we let him do it.

03:11In the nick of time,

03:13we caught a glimpse of Ray pulling Haloblaks and Coco Lumber.

03:23Ray continued to pull Haloblaks.

03:31He followed Coco Lumber.

03:36It's like fried chicken for Ray,

03:38the pulling of wood.

03:40The Haloblaks were hot,

03:42so my mouth swelled.

03:45The cement was hot.

03:48Coco Lumber didn't have a problem.

03:51You should know that there are conditions

03:53for people who eat various things.

03:56This is called paika.

03:59The cause of this, from studies, is lack of vitamins.

04:03For some, they see this as something due to stress,

04:08due to anxiety,

04:10or another type of mental health problem.

04:13Dr. Rifarial explains that paika is not what Ray is doing.

04:18If he doesn't sleep,

04:20if he doesn't have cravings,

04:21if he doesn't do it every day,

04:23it might not be an eating problem or eating disorder.

04:27Gastroenterologist Dr. Paulo Dimapelis

04:32reminds us that it's very dangerous for Ray's body.

04:36Not only can it damage our gastrointestinal tract,

04:40but it also has the potential to be harmful to our body.

04:44It can cause pain in our intestines and cause vomiting.

04:47It can weaken the patient and lead to death.

04:50Ray has been doing this for almost his entire life.

04:54He's lucky now that he doesn't have an ulcer yet.

04:57So even if it seems like his foot is in danger,

05:00he continues to do what he loves.

05:04I told myself that one day I'll be able to pull you.

05:08So when I was able to pull the bus,

05:11I was so happy, sir.

05:13Even if my body aches for a week,

05:15I'll be able to pull it.

05:17I'm trying my best.

05:19As long as I can earn money for my children.

05:23A unique talent with a strong heart and a strong will.

05:28That's the Filipino Ironman, Ray.

05:31He can do anything, even pull or grab.

05:35He really can do it.

05:37I'm Mark Salazar,

05:39and that's the story you need to know.

06:01I'm Mark Salazar.
